Thanks, Mike. I expect we’ll switch to a once-a-month open call for people who have updates or new developments to share. I just spoke with Paula about getting the SC&A community on the PC’s agenda—they may have
space on one of the calls later this month, but it’s more likely to happen after Thanksgiving, as part of a bigger-picture, stock-taking exercise.
Best,
Aaron

Thanks Aaron. It seems that a once a month cadence makes sense to keep the advocacy going and the eventual new developments that could arise. I am personally interested in helping and Arkivum could play a role to enable new workflows
and capabilities needed by this community.
Regards
Mike

Subject: SpecColl_Archives FOLIO SC&A WG: going forward
I’ve communicated with several people from the FOLIO SC&A WG in the past week. There are basically two perspectives on the current state of play:
- Recognize that the WG has fulfilled its original charge and can stand down, at least until FOLIO development has moved beyond the core platform stage.
- Switch from weekly to (say) monthly calls, with interested WG members continuing to advocate for SC&A features through the SIGs that were identified in the August
2018 White Paper (https://bit.ly/2ENV8M4).
I’m working with Paula Sullenger to get the SC&A WG on the agenda for an upcoming PC call, and will report back on the substance of that discussion. For what it’s worth, here’s my take on where
things stand:
Clearly, there is no consensus for keeping the WG going in its current form and and on its current schedule. That said, there is still interest among some of the WG members in promoting SC&A-specific
development under the FOLIO aegis. I expect that those of us who are interested in working on SC&A issues with FOLIO will continue to do so in various ways, be it through the PC, the SIGs, or by reaching out collectively or individually to Index Data, Atlas
Systems, Arkivum, Lyrasis, and so forth. The mechanism for sharing updates about this work is still TBD: it may be a pared-down or revamped version of the WG, or it may be a different forum entirely. For the time being, continue to monitor this channel—and
feel free to contact me off-list.
Finally, thanks to everyone who has participated in the WG and its work so far. We actually got rather a lot done, especially in defining features and enhancements the community would like to
see. The challenge now is to turn the wish-list into working applications.
Best,
Aaron
